Two Hostages

Two cabins, one detained Princess Lorraine and the other detained General Joseph.   

Yin Nanzhao said to the four guards outside: "You all leave."

After the four guards left, he pointed to the left cabin and said to Luo Xun, "Inside is Princess Lorraine."   

Luo Xun took a few steps, but at the last moment, she turned and walked towards General Joseph's cabin.   

Yin Nanzhao coldly looked at her.

Luo Xun glanced at him with guilty conscience and said with tight-lipped, "Just by seeing Princess Lorraine, I know that she was well protected by Ye Jie. I guess she doesn't know much. General Joseph should somehow know more."   

"I didn't say anything." Yin Nanzhao's expression was indifferent.   

Luo Xun knocked on the cabin door and walked in, "General, long time no see."

General Joseph's face was full of surprise. "I was thinking even how courageous the pirates were, they can't infiltrate into Dragon Blood unit to kidnap people. Sure enough, it was Odin Federation. I didn't expect the Black Crow pirate group to be theirs. A bunch of dead birds fits the mutant style very well...''

Luo Xun coughed heavily and signaled him not to think about the Black Crow pirate group yet and pay more attention to her.   

General Joseph looked at her up and down, and asked mockingly, "Are you here to help the mutant as a spokesperson? Don't forget the prince's mercy of saving your life!"

Luo Xun politely gave him a polite refusal, "No mercy, only a deal. Ye Jie saved my life. I had played the role of Princess Lorraine. Now he broke the fake princess identity, our deal has already ended. "

General Joseph glared at her angrily, "I really don't know why the prince chose you to replace the princess. You are obviously a pure gene human, but you are willing to fight for the lowly mutant."

"I really don't know why you betrayed Al Empire. You are obviously the great general of the nation, but you are willing to collude with Ye Jie to turn black to white and framed the crown prince."   

General Joseph abruptly stood up with his face full of resentment, "It's not me who turn black to white! Don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything!"   

"What I don't know?"  

General Joseph realized that he had overreacted. He immediately restrained his mood and sat back down then said indifferently: "All I said was the truth. It was Yingxian Shao Jing who planned everything. No slander."  

Luo Xun knew that she could no longer ask for useful information, so she left politely.

Yin Nanzhao had been waiting outside the cabin all along. His back leaned on the transparent observation window, behind him was the vast boundless ocean of dazzling stars. He folded his arms across his chest and looked at Luo Xun quietly.  

Luo Xun shrugged at him, saying that she had found nothing, "General Joseph doesn't know who I am. Moreover, he detests mutant so much, no way to tell the truth and betray Ye Jie to help Odin."

Yin Nanzhao's face was indifferent as expected, "I know. General Joseph who is like that is normal. You're different."

Luo Xun was silent for a moment then asked: "Last time you said you know who I am."   

Yin Nanzhao plainly gave a light "Um".

"Who am I?"   

Yin Nanzhao did not answer. His gaze was towards Princess Lorrain's cabin door, hinting her to ask Princess Lorraine.

Luo Xun evasively said, "I don't understand politics, economics, and war at all, and completely not interested. I just want to know who I am. Why couldn't you just tell me directly?"   

Yin Nanzhao walked over in silence and opened Princess Lorraine's cabin door. He stretched out his hand and gestured for her to enter.   

Luo Xun felt utterly depressed and could only force herself to walk in. When she passed by Yin Nanzhao, she said coldly, "You are indeed not Qian Xu!"   

Yin Nanzhao's expression was wooden. Without saying a word, he helped her close the cabin door.

Luo Xun though over, Princess Lorraine must know her, but after all, they two had not really met each other before, so she should introduce herself politely first.

Unexpectedly, Princess Lorraine immediately stood up as soon as she saw her. Her expression was with vigilance and also faintly fearful.

Luo Xun felt that Princess Lorraine's reaction was not like a genuine product seeing a fake one. Her thoughts whirled quickly before greeting with a smile, secretly feigned to be a familiar acquaintance: "Her Royal Highness, long time no see."

Princess Lorraine face became pale with an uneasy expression. Like a sheep in wolf's clothing, she asked with a pitched voice, "What the hell is going on? Why did you have to send someone to kidnap me from Dragon Blood unit?"   

Luo Xun vaguely said: "Ye Jie didn't tell you the reason?"   

"No. I have been wondering how someone could get into Dragon Blood unit to kidnap people. It turns out to be you!"

Luo Xun thought for a while and asked: "If Ye Jie asked you who are you with right now. What would you say?"

Princess Lorraine baffling stared at Luo Xun with resentment, "Telling the truth, just say that I am with Dragon Heart. Now what? Do you dare to do but not dare to admit? Dragon Heart, what tricks are you playing? Did you not cause brother Ye Jie enough trouble?"   

Luo Xun's brain was completely blank, goosebumps all over.

Dragon Heart? She actually was a member of the Dragon Blood Unit!   

Although she didn't know what the Dragon Heart did, however a single name already implied so much. If the Dragon Head was the brain of the Dragon Blood unit, then the Dragon Heart should be the heart of the Dragon Blood unit. Her power in the Dragon Blood unit should be second only to Ye Jie, and even not inferior to Ye Jie.   

Princess Lorraine asked: "You look is so bad. What's the matter?"   

Luo Xun immediately turned around and rushed out of the cabin without looking back.

龍心 Long Xin / Dragon Heart

龍頭 Long Tou / Dragon Head

Or should I use pin yin instead? What do you think?
